Tried for Days - Why will this not work?

Trying to Have a hyperlink that will show the website address and be able to click on it and go directly to that site. I have tried several different methods and it keeps defaulting to my own URL any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sample from page...

$url = $row["Website"];
$site = $row["Company"];

$result = mysql_query ("SELECT * from table WHERE id=$id",$db);$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);

printf("%sn<br>", $row["company"]);
printf("%sn<br>", $row["Address"]);
Printf("%sn<br>", $row["City"]);
printf("%sn<br>", $row["State"]);
printf("%sn<br>", $row["PostalCode"]);
echo ("<a href='$url'>$site</a><br>n");
printf("<b>Specialization:</b> %sn<br>", $row["specialization"]);

Thanks

put

$url = $row["Website"];
$site = $row["Company"];

after

$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);

to select the url and site from database result. hope this helps.

If $site does not start with http:// it will be assumed that the link is local. From your description that sounds like what is happening.

Thanks a lot that worked great! (thought I was going to have an Excedrin moment)
